You know that I use the phrase VERY sparingly, David, but on this matter, you're wrong.
To-date there has been NO reporting that characterized the evidence Mueller and his team believe they have found or not found. Neither have…

I posted everything I have, David. The link came to me as a part of a sales email from Kerygma that offered sample chapters from five of its Bible study resources. Sorry.

The reality, however, is that the president is at 50% only in one poll - the conservative-leaning Rasmussen Poll. In
(Quote)What "the people of CA seem to know" can't be discerned from the sources that underwrote our respective posts, Gao Lu. What CAN be discerned from those sources, however, is 1) what your friends and my epidemiological experts each say a…
(Quote)One explanation for experts' not saying "the words" is that the experts don't believe "the words" apply to the California outbreak. After all, the experts ALSO aren't saying the outbreak was caused by Donald Trump, who ordered the Cent…
(Quote)My point is that the CA Health Department advisory to which you linked does not say "all those illegals... are spreading a fatal Hep A epidemic." Do you have any other evidence to back up your claim?
(Quote)In my view, the best way for us to accomplish the end you seek, Gao Lu, is to conform our posts to the former CD's expectation that we will "criticize ideas, not people."
(Quote)It's worth noting the following about the "fatal Hep A epidemic" reported in the CA Public Health document to which you link:
- 21 of 703 reported cases (3%) have resulted in death.
- The document says "Severe…
(Quote)Gao Lu, I applaud the candor and self-awareness of your acknowledgement that your obsession with Hillary Clinton is "a little weird."
(Quote)Accusations of "obsessions" tend not to move forum discussions forward, but since they've been made in this thread, I offer this: A fundamental difference between Gao Lu's "obsession" with Hillary Clinton and CM's "obsession" with the …
(Quote)I respect your view, David.
I believe the quality of presidential nominees and appointees affects governmental efficiency and effectiveness. I also believe unexpectedly short tenures for presidential appointees and cabinet secr…
(Quote)Neither CM, I, nor what you believe to be our shared origins and point of view is relevant to our current exchange. What IS relevant is the rate at which Trump appointees and cabinet secretaries have resigned or been fired in the first…
(Quote)No "apples." No "oranges." Just explanation... with which you may agree or disagree, but those paragraphs explain why I believe your comparison is invalid in a way the phrase "Apples and oranges" cannot.
I object to "apples and…

> I think you focus on the wrong things.
> No you focused on increased firing rates.
For the reco…(Quote)I focused on the hiring and firing of teachers because YOU raised the hiring and firing of teachers.
(Quote)It's not just Democrats who "paint this administration as utter chaos." Many media reports in the last few months have quoted White House staffers as issuing the same kind of diagnosis. Media reports aside, there's a problem when high …
(Quote)Had the president, with any level of concern or ability "follow(ed) such details" regarding his national security advisor appointments, perhaps he wouldn't have had to fire two of them in the first fourteen months of his term (one of t…
(Quote)Two responses, David:
1) One of Trump's many problems is that he has not adjusted to the reality that the federal government is NOT a business and presidents are not CEOs. As head of his family business, his wa…
(Quote)Do you believe the president had the "obligation" to hire the right people - those, during the 2016 campaign, in What President Trump Have To Hide? Comment by Bill_Coley April 2018
(Quote)CM will speak for himself as he sees fit on the issue of his raise. In my view, the issue of staff turnover matters because continuity (aka, longevity of service) brings experience, more productive relationships with congressional lead…
(Quote)(Quote)To this I offer the same basic observation as above, changing only the quoted references.
We ALL can err when engaging Bible texts, which means that it's in our selfish interests for our predictions of the outcomes of interpre…
(Quote)I've never heard anyone - let alone any well known advocate for enhanced gun control measures - say anything of the sort, David. Can you link to quotes?
(Quote)David, I'm not sure what the "liberal gun control narrative" is when it comes to how many people need to be killed by rifles before it becomes more than "hardly a problem." I hope you'll inform us.
(Quote)Thanks for a helpful example. Notice, however, that Isaiah 13 presents another unsolicited prophetic vision; it's not a word that responds to someone's inquiry.
(Quote)I see nothing in the text to suggest the use of OT, Babylonian fall, imagery, or any other imagery that is not to be taken literally.
- When Jesus compares the Kingdom of Heaven to a mustard seed (Matthew 13.31) it's clear t…
(Quote)What I claim is that the arrival depicted in Matthew 24.29-31 has not has not happened yet.
I decline your "they can't be wrong" indictment because I am VERY aware of my capacity for error, as I assume are you of yours.
(Quote)I change one word in your prediction, CM. Mueller WILL bring out Trump and company's illegal activities; he WILL pursue and produce justice.
Yesterday, the president of the United States outright lied (again) about his infamous…
(Quote)I think your point of view on this issue is intriguing, Wolfgang. My issue with it, however, is that it begs for, but does not receive, verification - contemporaneous witness accounts of the Son of Man's return, which particularly in M…
